Our main attractions

There are many elements that make Glasgow Science Centre one of Scotland’s must-see visitor attractions.

A hugely interactive Science Mall

The Centre is home to hundreds of interactive exhibits throughout the three engaging floors of our Science Mall – why not start your journey by taking the lift up to Floor 3 and find out all about yourself in BodyWorks?

Get to grips with the biggest challenges facing modern society - the future of our energy supply - in Powering the Future on Floor 2; and on Floor 1, be captivated by the hugely popular classics like the plasma ball, chaos pendulums and whispering dishes... Little Explorers can even take the helm of our ship on the Big Explorer!
